They abound with imagery including eyes, faces in profile, and other more indeterminate forms, including the dots with which the artist is synonymous, to offer impressions of worlds both abstract and figurative, microscopic and macroscopic. At once bold and intensely detailed and conveying extraordinary vitality, these works are joyfully improvisatory, fluid and highly instinctual. The paintings that will be on view are new examples drawn from the artist’s highly celebrated, ongoing My Eternal Soul series, which she commenced in 2009 and has worked on in a more intimate format since 2019.
Later in June, exhibitions of My Eternal Soul paintings will be presented at David Zwirner, New York, on 17 June and Ota Fine Arts, Tokyo, on 19 June. A dynamic installation of canvases will be unveiled at Victoria Miro in London on 4 June as part of a major exhibition of new paintings and sculptures. ĭavid Zwirner, Victoria Miro, and Ota Fine Arts are pleased to announce that they will jointly present new My Eternal Soul paintings by Yayoi Kusama in London, Tokyo, and New York this summer.

Owing to the nature of the artwork, free same-day Timed Passes will be distributed daily at the Museum starting at 9:30 AM throughout the run of the upcoming exhibition. The exhibition will also debut one of Kusama’s most recent rooms to Washington, DC, audiences. This exhibition honors Kusama’s distinctive vision of self-obliteration by exploring its development across media.Īmong the additions to the Hirshhorn’s permanent collection is Kusama’s milestone, Infinity Mirror Room-Phalli’s Field (Floor Show) (1965/2017), the first of the artist’s immersive installations to transform the intense repetition of her earlier paintings and works on paper into a perceptual and participatory experience. These transcendent rooms will be exhibited alongside an early painting sculptures, including Pumpkin (2016) and Flowers-Overcoat (1964) and photographs of the artist. One with Eternity will showcase the Hirshhorn’s permanent collection of works by Kusama, including two of her Infinity Mirror Rooms -her first and one of her most recent-that create a dazzling sensation of never-ending space.
Titled One with Eternity: Yayoi Kusama in the Hirshhorn Collection, the exhibition is a tribute to the life and practice of this visionary artist. Building on the Hirshhorn’s blockbuster 2017 exhibition Yayoi Kusama: Infinity Mirrors, the Museum presents a new exhibition of the Yayoi Kusama’s five works in their permanent collection-including three significant new acquisitions-affirming the artist’s legacy within the Museum’s collection and art history.
